"Rosemary's Baby," tells the story of a couple who move to a new apartment, and an old couple in the neighborhood get to know them enthusiastically, and then unfortunate things start to happen.
Overall, this is a scary story, just like the little girl in the third-grade elementary school book "Character and Society" who was burned because of the f-round, g, z, no one can be blamed for the horror, it is a kind of ideological fear. Although some cult news can occasionally be seen on the news, ordinary people do not know about those rabble. Judging from the news, it is a group of villains who deceive food and drink, but they can deceive certain people's hearts, and often in a wide range.
Because they don't know the psychological mechanism of those sinners and wicked people, people can only sigh uneasy: The human heart is bottomless.
This movie made me think about a question: Is God dead? Why do some people think God is dead? Even if God is dead, it's fine to put new idols on the altar, why should the demons go wrong? Because it is a foreign movie, there are some places in the plot that are not in line with my country's national conditions. I just clicked it to understand the psychological horror, and md regretted it, leaving a psychological shadow.
The most evil plot of this movie is that the object of this group of poisoning is a baby. I don't think the devil impregnated the rosemary, what I saw was a group of pagans giving rosemary herbs and deliberately deforming the baby - a felony! God should have struck them with lightning!
The biggest practical significance of this film is to point out that some ideas are poisonous and the importance of ideological construction. The evil infidels are all elderly, and combined with the release time of the movie, we can know that they have experienced wars. Rosemary's husband is an actor by profession, and he was very tempted. Rosemary is an unemployed housewife who has no maternal instinct and is unable to protect her children. They are all typical social characters and situations of that era. It does not mean that such characters and situations will inevitably encounter plots like the movie, but that there is a hidden spiritual crisis in such a society. Movies just let the mental crisis break out in the outside world.
This spiritual crisis is "God is dead". This "God" is the God of Christianity and Catholicism, the moral concepts and values promoted by outside churches. At the same time, it also refers to the inner god (kamisama) of the individual. The husband of a rosemary who sacrificed his wife and children for fame and fortune is typical, and he committed a serious sin against his inner god. Although Rosemary believed in Catholicism since she was a child, her belief was firm and pure, but she did not protect her own thinking and action. The whole movie shows the meaning of "desperation"!
